General parameters
Name ?Specifies
a symbolic name for the pipe. This name is referred to by the Traffic
Shaping part of the rules configuration.
Minimum Precedence
?Each pipe consists of eight different precedences, numbered 0 through
7. This setting specifies the lowest allowed precedence for traffic in
this pipe. If a packet with a lower precedence enters, its precedence
is raised to the value in this field. The value may range between 0 and
7.
Default Precedence
?Specifies the default precedence for the pipe. If a packet enters this
pipe without a set precedence, it gets assigned this default precedence.
This value may range between 0 and 7, but should be higher than, or equal
to, the minimum precedence.
Maximum Precedence
?Specifies the highest allowed precedence for traffic in this pipe. If
a packet with a higher precedence enters, its precedence is lowered to
the value of this field. The value may range between 0 and 7, but should
be higher than, or equal to, the default precedence.
Grouping
?The same way that traffic limits and reservations may be applied to a
pipe as a whole, limits and reservations can be applied to individual
users of a pipe. The users may be grouped according to destination network,
destination IP address, destination port, source network, source IP address
and source port. Note: grouping per port implicitly means also grouping
per IP; port 1025 on one computer is not the same as port 1025 on another
computer.
Network Size
?If users are grouped according to source or destination network, the
size of the network has to be specified by this setting.
Enable dynamic balancing
of groups ?Determines if dynamic
bandwidth balancing should be applied to the users of this pipe. |
